The company behind thesmartpatent.com

Paying an attorney by the hour just to find out where you stand?

[On screen: Patent questions, answered before you pay an attorney.] Get your patent questions answered first. Start with what you have.

An idea. A product about to launch. Or a patent document.

[On screen: I have an idea. Is it worth filing? Fictional example, product demo.] Have an idea? Describe it in plain words, and see the directions you might file.

[On screen: No prior-art search. No novelty check.] It doesn't search prior art; it sorts out what you have. From there, build a roadmap and a full draft.

[On screen: I'm launching a product. Will it infringe? AI screen, not legal advice.] Launching a product? Screen it against US and Chinese patents, and see which ones deserve a closer look.

[On screen: I have a patent document. Need it in English or German? Published patent CN 111767710 B, real output: claim 1 in Chinese next to its English translation in EPO claim style.] Have a patent document? Get it in English or German, with claims in EPO, UK or US form.

Then take a clear picture to your patent attorney.
